It includes a variety of procedures, namely removing a portion of stomach (sleeve gastrectomy), removing the size of the stomach (gastric band), or re-routing the small intestine to a small stomach pouch (gastric bypass). Obesity increases the risk of many diseases and health conditions and it is important to treat obesity.

Inguinal hernia is a condition that occurs when abdominal tissues, such as part of the intestine, protrudes through a weak spot of the inguinal canal. Symptoms of inguinal hernia include bulge in the groin area, burning sensation, groin pain and discomfort, dragging sensation, groin weakness, pain and swelling.

Inguinal hernia can be treated with laparoscopic hernia surgery; ie, passing a laparoscope through keyhole incisions to pull back the protruded abdominal tissues in the inguinal canal and placement of a mesh.
